Missing WindowsCodecs.dll after Beta 2 install

I updated to Beta 2 successfully but now I'm missing some files!

My code errors out when anything references WindowsCodecs.dll (ie
ImageBrushes).

Is there any way I can get the missing file(s) and copy them over manually?

Thanks,

F.

Can you email me your install logs (robertwl AT microsoft DOT com)?
WinFx install log: %temp%\dd_*.txt
WIC install log: %windir%\wic.log

Thanks!
